Staff was very helpful with coffee order. Great atmosphere whether studying or socializing with some friends. Closing later than other coffee shops also a nice bonus

Not gunna lie, a moody barista blasting harsh noise 9am on a Sunday morning was not on my bingo sheet. Probably for a reason!

Great café on 17th with a nice selection of food and drinks. A comfortable, quiet spot to get some work done or catch up with a friend.

Element Café is a cozy spot with a welcoming atmosphere that’s perfect for enjoying a quality cup of coffee. The menu has a nice variety, but the standout is definitely the Canadiano, which is rich, smooth, and well-balanced in flavor. The staff are friendly and attentive, making the experience easy and enjoyable, and the relaxed vibe of the café makes it a great place to sit down and unwind.
I had a coffee with plant based milk and a delicious hazelnut croissant.
Very nice cafe with good food and drink

Element has by far the best iced coffee and matcha in Calgary, not once have I gotten a drink here and it wasn’t good. The nice thing is the iced drinks never water down and you can actually taste the coffee because it’s concentrated unlike many other places. I was a little disappointed however by the cookies they were selling recently made by another bakery, the cookies looked very appetizing at first, when I tried the cookies and shared them with my family they had a weird taste and didn’t taste like a shortbread cookie with jam. It was very upsetting especially for a small box with 6 mini cookies selling for $10 dollars.

The saffron pistachio latte was lovely. Flavors were more subtle than I expected. Saving the pistachio croissant for tomorrow. Bus 6 stop with a bench is feet away. I will return to this gem.

Friendly service, comfortable atmosphere, and a great location close to so many downtown hotspots make this Cafe great for meeting up with friends any time of the day.

Cool latte flights, but not celiac-friendly (some have cake mix). My saffron lavender latte wasn’t extra hot, and the dark vibe isn’t very relaxing. It’s okay, but there are better spots in Calgary.

I love coming here when I need a quick pick me up, today’s barista ( I think her names Lequisha ) was so positive and welcoming, all good vibes here! ☕️

It’s not very often a coffee shop has great service, but doesn’t expect a tip. The barista skipped the tip option and told me not to worry about that, but still gave amazing service. Element is one of my favourite coffee shops in the city. They have good coffee, a great atmosphere, and amazing service.
